You didn’t mention what sort of meat was in your samosandwich. Looks like chicken, eh?

I learn something from your blog posts almost every time I read about some ethnic resto you eat at. I had never heard of gol gappe. There are lots of things in Indian food I’m ignorant of. Tamarind broth sounds interesting. I have a small brick of tamarind paste that I need to find something to do with — Carol had this half-cocked notion to make her own ketchup when she bought it — so maybe I’ll look that broth up online.

Bukko, it’s a samosa sandwich – so it’s potato and pastry. Samosas are big deep-fried dumplings, typically filled with potato and spices. Though they can have lamb in them, too. They’re a bit like an Indian empanada, except triangular.
